• Boating Accidents: Incidents on Houston’s waterways, including Galveston Bay, Clear Lake, and local rivers, caused by reckless operation, BUI, or mechanical failures.
• Slip and Fall Accidents / Premises Liability: Injuries sustained on someone else’s dangerous or poorly maintained property (e.g., wet floors, uneven surfaces, inadequate lighting, negligent security) in stores, restaurants, or private residences.
• Workplace Injuries: Injuries occurring on the job, particularly in industrial settings, construction sites, or occupations with inherent risks, are outside typical workers’ compensation claims.

The Personal Injury Claim Process:

1. Free Consultation: We begin with a confidential, no-obligation meeting to discuss your accident and injuries and gather initial details.
2. Investigation & Evidence Gathering: Our team immediately launches a thorough investigation. This includes collecting police reports, medical records, eyewitness statements, photos, videos, and expert testimony.
3. Calculating Damages: We work with medical and financial experts to meticulously calculate the full scope of your past, current, and future losses.
4. Negotiation with Insurers: We handle all communications with insurance companies, aggressively negotiating for a fair settlement that reflects your damages.
5. Litigation (if necessary): If a fair settlement cannot be reached, we are fully prepared to file a lawsuit and represent you vigorously in court.
6. Resolution: We strive for the best possible outcome, whether through a successful settlement or a favorable verdict at trial.

What Compensation Can You Recover?

Following a personal injury in Houston, you may be entitled to recover various types of damages, including:

• Medical Expenses: All costs associated with your treatment, including emergency care, hospital stays, surgeries, doctor visits, physical therapy, medication, and future medical needs.
• Lost Wages: Compensation for income lost due to time off work for recovery.
• Loss of Earning Capacity: If your injuries permanently reduce your ability to work or earn at your previous level.
• Pain and Suffering: Compensation for physical pain, emotional distress, mental anguish, and discomfort caused by your injuries.
• Property Damage: Costs to repair or replace damaged personal property.
• Disfigurement and Impairment: For permanent scarring, disfigurement, or physical limitations.
• Loss of Consortium: Compensation for the negative impact on your relationship with your spouse due to your injuries.
• Punitive Damages: In rare cases of extreme negligence or malice, additional damages may be awarded to punish the at-fault party and deter similar conduct.

Key Texas Personal Injury Laws for 2025

Understanding these fundamental Texas laws is vital for your personal injury claim:

• Statute of Limitations: In Texas, you generally have two years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. There are minimal exceptions, and missing this deadline almost certainly forfeits your right to compensation. For wrongful death claims, the two-year clock begins on the date of death. Be aware: Claims against government entities (city, county, state) often have much shorter notice periods (e.g., sometimes as little as 90 days) before the lawsuit deadline.
• Modified Comparative Negligence (Proportionate Responsibility): Texas follows a “51% bar” rule. This means you can recover damages even if you are partially at fault for the accident, as long as your fault is not greater than 50%. You are barred from recovering any compensation if you are found 51% or more at fault. If you are, for example, 20% at fault, your total compensation will be reduced by 20%.
• Damages Caps: While there are no caps on economic (e.g., medical bills, lost wages) or non-economic (e.g., pain and suffering) damages in most general personal injury cases, Texas does have caps on certain types of damages in specific scenarios, such as medical malpractice cases.
